Fifteen pages later and I'm finally done with this paper. Can you believe it? Fifteen pages! It's crazy!
TO: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
FROM: ALFIE
What class is that for? (And yes, crazy indeed.)
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
Geography. We had to write about the effects of climate change. Boring and completely juvenile. I would have done something like this in college.
TO: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
FROM: ALFIE
Ah, well, it's done, yeah? I say we celebrate!
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
Does that mean you want to meet up? Remember what happened last time?
TO: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
FROM: ALFIE
Yes, Liz... -.-

YOU DROPPED YOUR COFFEE ALL OVER THAT POOR MAN.

I SAID I WAS SORRY!
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
You're just evil, Alfie. Evil, evil, evil.

Bet it made a grand story to tell his wife when he got home, though.
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
Hm. Maybe. Who's to say he's got a wife, though? He could well-enough be on his own.

FROM: ALFIE
At that age? I certainly hope not.
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
What? He was only forty something.
TO: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
FROM: ALFIE
More along the lines of sixty.
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
No way!
TO: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
FROM: ALFIE
Yeah, he had white hair and glasses and everything. Can't believe you missed it. Do you need glasses? (;
TO: ALFIE
FROM: E(LIZ)A(BETH)
Shut up. And, well then, I sincerely hope he went home to his lovely wife and they had a good laugh about it.
